The zipper on my only cycling rain jacket broke just before leaving on a cycling trip through northern Scotland. I emergency-ordered the showers pass rain jacket that had been recommended by others. Saved. My. Trip. On and off every day, as the predatory storms blew through all day, nearly every day. I back and forth swapped jackets between a lighter version for the sunny moments, and this jacket for the rain, and it worked out perfectly. Sometimes both at once when it hailed! Highly recommend. It's now my favorite rain jacket for cycling during those very drenchy moments. Thanks for the emergency save AND absorbing my stress level when I thought it might not arrive.
